Post pictures of your LIQUOR CABINET

C'mon, lets see those collections of booze. :)

I forgot to take pics of our wine.

This, Jenny, is one of the ciders we can get here in the states. Wyder's. Hornsby's is the other big one... I'm not sure that there are a lot of others though. No, this isn't mine, my sis-in-law brought some over for a bbq on last saturday.

I see Wyder's do raspberry cider.. not a flavour I'd had the pleasure of trying before! :o ..and again, I am so happy to see the Chambord in there. That's my favourite looking spirits bottle, and I always used to try and pimp it out to customers when I worked in the bar.

I'll take some pictures tomorrow, when it isn't 3am.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

You better! :shakefist

;)

The 7*Up cooler is sometimes full of beer, usually full of soda, and right now its full of Rockstar because Ty gets it for free. :)

[Dasquian Belargic]

It makes me laugh that you have so many shot glasses.. :mneh

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Well, I highly doubt many of them have actually been used for shots. The Hard Rock ones are my collection, and they arrived with a shot in them, but that's the extent of it I'm afraid. ;)

Re: cider

There's a brand that I know is available on a limited basis on the eastern seaboard at least called Cider Jack. It's pretty good if you like that sort of thing.

That is an amazing liquor cabinet. Serious jealousy up in here.

Do you have a wine rack or chiller? I know it's not really party stuff, but that seems to be the next logical step :)

[Dasquian Belargic]

In typically British fashion, we don't have our spirits on display. We keep them hidden away in a seemingly innocent kitchen cupboard, along with the bartenders manual and a tin of Amaretto biscuits:

Drag all of that out (with the addition of a couple bottles that live upstairs with me ^_^;) and you get:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v210/tehwofl/alco2.jpg
L-R: Homemade Christmas pudding vodka, Noble Cherry liquer, Grants blended Scottish whiskey, Disaronno Originale (amaretto almond liquer), London gin, Absolut vodka, Hendricks cucumber gin, Gordons gin, Sailor Jerry spiced rum, Cointreau, Angostura bitters, Martin Miller's gin, Bombay Sapphire gin, Vermouth, Sheridan's coffee layered liquer, another Noble Cherry :lol, Mickey Finn's sour apple schnapps, Sourz apple liquer, Midori melon liquer, Crème de cassis (black currant liquer), Blue Curaçao, Melocoton peach schnapps.

Of the three of us living here, only my mum and I drink spirits. Neither of us are big whiskey drinkers, but my mum is a big gin fan (mothers ruin lol) so that's why there isn't much in the way of dark spirits. I'm surprised there wasn't some Baileys Irish Cream in there too, probably got finished off back at Christmas.

I had just put all of this away again when I noticed this cheeky (not so) little bottle of Galliano hiding behind the flour bin:

I also discovered a bottle of Luxardo lemon liquer we bought in Rome and some Malibu coconut rum. It's like an alcohol scavenger hunt in this house sometimes.

Here is the meagre offering of cider we have right now:

Strongbow was my student staple. Bulmers is slightly more pricey fare, made by the same people, and that bottle of Gaymers has actually been with us for over a month now because I don't like the stuff! :o My favorite brands are Kopparberg and Brothers, with a preference for pear or mixed fruits over apple, but I don't have the money to be splashing out on such things now :( My step-dad is a cider drinker too, so we usually have a six-pack of Scrumpy Jack in the fridge too.

And finally some wine, some tonic water and the various bottles of champagne we have horded over the past few years:

You know, it completely dawns on me that I don't really have a cabinent, or even a cubbord full of alcohol. I can tell you all what I currently have and none of it is very impressive (really need to restock)... I think the most humorous thing seems to be my 3 bottles of coconut rum (it was on crazy sale at one point)

Hmm...maybe after a trip to BevMo this weekend I will take a pic of the silly cabinent where I keep everything. Oh...and the freezer since I think about 3 bottles of stuff permanently live there.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

We have about thirty bottles of wine, Charley. Ty just took down our racks to make room for his new toolbox. And we can get more just about any time we want - Christmastime we usually keep a lot extra on hand for gifts and such. We also have a few of the huge 1.5 lt bottles for fun. :p

[Charley]

Hey, I've got a project for you coming up for Dragoncon. I'm looking for a certain wine and if you can source it and bring it with you, I'd totally buy some.

[Hobgoblin]

WHOOPS I DRANK ALL MINE.

I don't keep very much alcohol onhand because I'm not but so into it. I am of the "I want it to taste good and not fireproof my mouth" school of thought when it comes to food and drink. For this reason, I am very attracted to rum, enjoy a solid beer, and don't really like the really strong hard stuff that reminds me of doctor's office antiseptic.

I'm currently drinking a pomegranate-flavored tea beverage (you heard me).

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

I always keep this stuff on hand:

If you like pomegranate, you might like it :)

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Your link doesn't work. :p

[Hobgoblin]

Generally I am not a vodka man. I am not averse to sampling some of yours, however. ^_^

The link worked for me? I guess I am special?

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

That's odd, it works fine for me too o_O


But yeah, it's good stuff, and fantastic in the more fruity type mixed drinks. Goes great with Squirt, too. I've got some plum vodka by the same folks, but I haven't tried it yet.

[Zem Vymes]

Doesn't work for me and we're in the same house. That's trippy!

[Charley]

Hey way to go you jerk you made us go buy $150 in liquor today!

[Ryan Pode]

I really don't have a collection because I drink my liquor.

I really don't have a collection because I drink my liquor.

I see we have something in common. :rolleyes
